Arcade Ambience 199X - input requested
ahofle:
I'm going to be starting one last volume of arcade ambience, this time something circa early nineties for all the youngins who weren't lucky enough to experience the early eighties arcades. I was leaning towards 1990 or so, but I'm afraid of death threats from Street Fighter2/Mortal Kombat people, so I may just do 1992. I know large arcades were pretty rare at this point, but they did exist. The "Fun Factory" and "Einstein's Arcade" in Austin, TX were frequent hangouts of mine around that time between classes and although they weren't quite the same as the early 80s arcades, they were fairly crowded and had a good amount of games.
So, that said, does anyone have any input into which games I should use from around 1987-1991 or so? So far I have these games in mind (I remember all of these from the arcade at that time):
Xybots
Smash TV
Klax
Tetris
Arkanoid
Toobin
Cyberball
Raiden
Vindicators
Road Blasters
Altered Beast
Assault
Crime Fighters
Golden Axe
TMNT
Moonwalker :laugh2:
Rampart
And thanks to the miracle of pinball emulation, I'm going to put in a few pinballs this time (probably Funhouse, Whirlwind, and Elvira and the Party Monsters).

Xmen and Simpsons should be on there if you ask me. Xmen is 1992 I think though. I think Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat would be good additions as well.
Thanks for putting the time in to do this, I really love your other mp3s.

Oh yeah, Street Fighter is a must (SF2 and the MKs would probably fit in a later ambiance, though I'm not triying to make work for you here >:D). Undercover Cops, Final Fight, Contra, Ajax... also Strider.

Afterburner was a big one in my local arcade....

Well, since you mentioned that you's be throwing in pinball sound effects this time, how about adding Black Knight 2000. It fits the time period and it has some of the best original music and dialogue of any pin IMO.
